    if i purchase workstation licence over my OEM licence of Windows pro, can i move my windows...


    i am planing to purchase a workstation licence over my OEM licence of windows pro through Microsoft store, but not sure if i can move that licence to another computer in future or not ?

    or may be i should ask this - if i upgrade OEM licence of Windows pro to Workstation, will that be changed/converted to Retail licence ?

    :)

    MS: Upgraded Motherboard = New Windows Licence

    Microsoft recently made a change to the licence agreement saying that a new motherboard is equal to a new computer, hence you need to purchase a new Windows licence. I don't know how true this is but it's going around the forums fast. People are flaming up a storm about it to. This is because a lot of user purchased legal copies of OEM XP/XP Pro and i's already a hassle to have to call in and activate your account everytime you install a new PCI device or change certain BIOS settings. So this is a the final blow I guess to get people to buy Vista. Inwhich I would steer clear from because there is an improved version coming out just after Vista. I can't recall the name at the moment. But any hoot. take a gander at this.

    Windows 10 OEM Licence

    We recently purchased machines with came with Windows 10 OEM licences and had others upgraded from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10 during the free upgrade period.

    Question - Can we use the OEM versions in a business or will we need to upgrade those licences ?

    Thanks
